System Partitioning
Single Domain
• Cannot be partitioned.
• A single-domain system contains:
− Its own power, cooling, and maintenance interface
− Its own master clock
Dual Domain
Single Monolithic Partition
• The combined domains function as a monolithic system.
• Each domain contains a separate power subsystem and maintenance interface.
•
• •
• Cooling is shared between domains.
• Although each domain contains a master clock, only one master clock is used by the
partition.
Two Separate Partitions
• Each partition functions as an independent system.
• The partitions cannot share resources.
• Each partition must include at least one PM, one IOM, and one MSU.
• Each domain contains a separate power subsystem and shared cooling, regardless of
the division of resources among partitions.
• Each partition uses a separate master clock and has a separate maintenance interface,
regardless of the division of resources among domains.
